做人

The closest English translation I could find for “做人” is “behave”. But it is so much more than that! Many people who have studied a lot, who have become doctor, professor, even scholar, but still suck at 做人! 做人 is about knowing what to do, and when to do it. It’s a very difficult art to be mastered as it often questions one’s moral integrity. Which is the main reason why I’m quite bad at it; not because I don’t know what to do, but I often chose not to do what I should do. You have to learn this on your own, but you cannot master this without first understanding how to 看人!
